I was a nurse for 17 years, and it finally succeeded at chewing me up and spitting me out. I'm on Social Security disability now because the job exacerbated my bipolar so much that I can't work at all. Don't be like me and wait too long to deal with your job stressors.....make sure to take the time you need to recover fully. Best wishes for the future.
